Everyone talks about work-life balance like it's some perfect 50/50 split you can just *achieve*. But what if it's not a balance at all, just a constant, messy negotiation? Some days it's 80/20 work, others 20/80 life. And trying to force an even split just makes you feel like you're failing all the time. Maybe the goal isn't "balance," it's just "not completely losing it."
